Book synopsis

Excerpt from Memoirs of Frederica Sophia Wilhelmina, Vol. 2 of 2: Princess Royal of Prussia, Margravine of Baireuth, Sisiter of Frederick the Great The year 1732 introduced a new epoch. I had for some time past suffered much indisposition, the cause of which I attributed to the continual agitation of a mind oppressed by adversities. I wished to attend to my devotions, and went to church, but fainted during the service and remained insensible for some hours. On my recovery, I found myself in bed surrounded by a crowd of persons who had run to my assistance, and among the rest, the queen. The physician decided that I was breeding, on which subject the company amused themselves greatly; but I paid no attention to anything that they said to me, I suffered too much; I had several faintings during that day, which prevented my rising. The queen sent me word the next morning that she would pay me a visit in the evening to celebrate Twelfth Night. It was but a sad festival, and all present seemed to have fears for my life. Tears were in every eye; I took a tender farewell of the margrave Philip. My marriage had not altered our friendship, and I felt sensibly affected in separating from those I loved. The next day, the 7th of January, we removed to Potsdam. The king received me with open arms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
